Port Wine Stain Chelford

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is employed by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to safely and effectively treat Port Wine Stain on skin types I-IV. This system emits light in certain wavelength ranges, targeting absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin to be able to treat Port Wine Stain of different sizes and depths, causing minimal harm to the surrounding skin. After the procedure, the damaged vessels are taken up by the body and the initial lesion is hardly visible.

At Dr Sknn, IPL is applied to employ light energy. The light is absorbed by the Port Wine Stain, heating them to a point of spasm and/or closure and sealing. Over the upcoming weeks, the ruined vessels are assimilated naturally by the body, leaving minimal or no clues of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, an evaluation involving a medical profile, a physical examination and photos will be done during the meeting. This is a great opportunity to talk about any worries, hopes, outcomes or inquiries. Before receiving the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, the aftercare advice and potential risks will be outlined, and a consent form must be signed. If the area being treated is new, a patch test will be performed to check if it is suitable.
